Boyd and Walter (1975) identified the need to provide supervision for school counselors almost forty years ago. Michelle Obama, the First Lady of the United States (2014), in her address at the American School Counselor Association Conference stated that school counselors needed to be provided with professional development opportunities designed...
Nanotechnology products have long since made their way to markets around the world increasing the concerns about whether nanomaterials pose a risk to our environment or health. It has been suggested that engineered nanomaterial (ENM) with broad applications and rapid commercialization need better risk assessment and regulation. However, the refinement...
Mycotoxins are food-borne toxins produced by molds which are commonly found on animal feeds of economic significance. Toxic doses of these compounds vary widely across livestock species, and even within a species when considered across all stages of development and production. This variation is due to the wide range of...
To determine the best poly-ion layers to be used in encapsulation of pyrrolizidine alkaloid degrading anaerobic microbes, a study was carried out to test three layers on coating ability and ability of the bacteria to grow after being coated. Two positive layers, poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) and poly-L-lysine, and one negative...

Global warming is becoming an increasingly important environmental concern and CO₂ is considered as the major cause of global warming. Creating useful applications for CO₂ would generate alternatives to merely venting CO₂ to the atmosphere, and decreasing the carbon intensity of human activities. Among various methods of CO₂ utilization, conversion...
Three varieties of sweet corn (Zea mays L.) , including
two supersweet (Crisp 'N Sweet 710 and Rogers 3376) and one
normal sweet (Jubilee), were harvested at six stages of
maturity (80-72% moisture for supersweet and 75-68% moisture
for normal sweet) at three days intervals. Changes in
physical and chemical...
Grazing on the mountainous forested ranges of the Camp Creek
Unit, Malhuer National Forest, was typified by irregular distribution
of free-ranging cattle. A combination of management and physical,
topographic constraints caused cattle to concentrate on the riparian
zone early in the grazing season in 1977 and 1978. A large percentage...
Site 35JA42 represents the first protohistoric village
complex excavated in Southwest Oregon. Analyses of animal
bones recovered from the site offer the first significant
insights into human subsistence behaviors in this region.
Although the faunal assemblage is extremely fragmented,
detailed zooarchaeological analysis indicates that deer were
the primary meat resource...
The abundance and low fat content of Pacific whiting
support Its use for the production of surimi. The
degradation of muscle proteins by myxosporidian secreted
proteinase(s) has been associated with its soft texture.
High residual activity is retained through the washing
process used in the production of surimi and precludes...
This qualitative study explores the "coming out" experience of gay males raised in conservative Christian environments. Seven men with varying ethnic and racial backgrounds, between the ages of 20 and 40 years old, participated. Each was raised in a conservative, Christian environment during his formative years and each was now...
